Abu
Dhabi National Hotels

more than 20 years ago as a shareholding
company with three hotels purchased from
the Government. Later an industrial catering
division was set up to broaden the Company's
activities.

Sun
Shine Tours

For decades,
the Arabian Gulf has been a place of exotic
mystery for outsiders who knew little
of the latter-day transformation of the
desert sheikdoms in to the holiday destination
of the future.

It was
a visionary move by Abu Dhabi National
Hotels to set up a tourism division -
Sunshine Tours - in 1986, when only a
trickle of mainly Swiss and German tourists
had ventured into the Gulf sands and waters.

Since that
time, the company has fine-tuned the Emirate's
attractions to provide a range of activities
to suit all interests from sand skiing
in the Liwa dunes to 4WD desert safaris;
visits to Bedouin villages; mountain drives;
camping under the stars or sailing amid
the placid waters of the Gulf for a spot
of fishing, snorkeling or just drifting
away to a desert island for lunch.

With a
growing infrastructure providing all modern
comforts such as air-conditioned hotels,
palm-fringed highways, foods from around
the world and direct access from all parts
of the world via Abu Dhabi International
Airport, the Emirate has the distinction
of combining the best of the new with
allure of Arabia - a magnet for 21st century
tourism.
